    And to think those beauties are sitting 30 miles from my house and I can't buy them.

    Thanks for reconnecting me to those links. I'd completely forgotten.

    The tech sheet says it uses the LE14H-3. So it was changed to LE14H-4 later.

    4313B, what is the main differnece between the -3 and -4?

    I just compared the two spec sheets. It would appear that the primary difference is that the LE14H-4 has a slightly lighter cone. All of the TS parameters reflect the changes that this would cause... i.e. higher Fs, higher sensitivity etc.

    Yeah, looks like a sensitivity thing.
    They got 2-3 dB more output.

    We discussed this sensitivity tradeoff with the Array 1400 if I remember correctly.

    Marketing?

    The S4600 system is very nice. The LE14H-4 has 10 - 15 less grams of aquaplas making it around 91 dB. This is much more acceptable for the Japanese.
    JBL really needs to make this system available in North America.

    ... Europe too. I could convince my wife presumably.

    10 - 15 less grams, does this change the bass frequency response significantly?
    To be more concrete: Is there an audible difference between the woofers of the Array 1400 and the S4600?. (I had the chance to listen to an Array 1400 some time ago.)

    Thanks for posting the S4600 info in the Technical Reference: System Info area.

    It begs the question of comparison with the 1400 Array.

    If they did, probably only through Synthesis dealers, as that is where the LS series is going to show up next year.

    I was told that there is zero market for it in the U.S. and that it would not be available. I suspect that may be due to the lighter bottom end as compared with something like the 1400 Array.

    So what would stop someone from buying a pair and adding a sub?
    But then its the same old situation, nowhere to sell them anyway, besides Synthesis dealers, which really means no visibility to the public.
